Tasting notes Numanthia 2020

Red wine Aged in wood. 18 months in French oak barrels.

Numanthia 2020 is a red wine that unveils a profound and sophisticated aroma where red berries intertwine with cocoa, sweet spices, and a delicate floral undertone, reminiscent of a secret garden at dusk. On the palate, it is expansive and silky, with fine tannins enveloping the flavours of ripe cranberries, blackcurrants, cinnamon, and nutmeg, while a hint of rosemary and graphite imparts a long and intricate finish, inviting one to linger in the moment. Its balance and body, alongside the freshness of its acidity, make it feel like a solid and refined companion, ready to accompany a table of hearty dishes or to be savoured in tranquillity, allowing each sip to reveal its character unhurriedly.

About Numanthia

Numanthia is the most emblematic wine from Bodega Numanthia, and is considered as one of the great wines from D.O. Toro.
Numanthia gets its name from Numancia, a city famous of the resistance of an epic attack from the Roman army. The citizens defenced the city until the end, choosing death rather than surrender.
Drawing a parallel with history, the Numanthia vines have resisted the extreme climate for almost 100 years and have been able to overcome some "bloody" episodes like the phylloxera epidemic in the nineteenth century.
Numanthia is a single variety Tinta de Toro, the reigning variety in D.O. Toro.
It is made from grapes grown on old vines about 100 years old, different plots around the Duero River at an altitude of around 700 metres above sea level.
The vines have a low yield, but this makes the grapes very concentrated.
They support the extreme climate with a difference in temperature between the day and nights, between the winter and the summer.
The results are wines with strength and intensity. Numantian.
The harvest is done by hand when the grapes have reached their optimum ripening point. After a rigorous selection in the vineyard, the grapes are transported to the winery in small crates in order to preserve them in perfect conditions. Once at the winery, the grapes are crush by the traditional methods. The whole production process is a handicraft.  
The fermentation takes place for 9 days at a controlled temperature between 26 and 28 ºC, applying two daily stirrings.
After the fermentation there is a maceration with its skins for 25 days, applying soft stirring.
Numanthia ages for 18 months in new Bordeaux French oak barrel that support the wine's good structure and balance. There is a racking every four months.
Numanthia is a wine with intense and complex character but very balanced with a soft texture, silky and elegant.
A search for excellence which takes shape in every bottle.
